The things that make him Smile..

I know Sammy loves me. He loves me a lot. What I also know is that there are certain times when he REALLY loves me. A lot. I know this because during those times, I get some pretty killer smiles. Those smiles are like no other. I see them sometimes, not a lot, but enough.

This week's killer smiles came from high five-ing at the sold-out University of Houston football game. The smile wasn't because of the exciting, teeth-grinding touchdowns. It was because I was present, really there with him. I was enjoying the game just as much as he was. And what actually meant a lot to him is that I was there "for" him.



Got those same killer smiles at catching my every floundering trout. Got them when taking classes for my concealed handgun licence, got them when suffering through 10 degree bitter cold deer hunting, get them at every golf ball hit, get them at every baseball game...and any other loved activity in which he introduces me to. It's the way we connect, it's how we enjoy one another.

After that game, we decided to buy season tickets. Sure, it helps that U of H is now ranked #12 in the region. But, we did it to make it "our thing" we do, right now.





How does he get my killer smiles? Every time he admits to any man that he curls up on the couch with me to watch a Lifetime Woman's Network Movie :-))
